    SailGP is just one regatta into the new season but Sir Russell Coutts has already started to look ahead at the next steps for growth


    Included in the raft of changes to the boats this year are new high-speed boards and foils, with new propulsion systems expected by the end of the season.

    Coutts says they're also looking at more off-water improvements -- with all new initiatives able to be planned out over the long-term to help reduce costs.
